The Brotherhood of Submariner Homages (a/k/a BSHT) (Part 35)

BSHT Part 35.

As you know, many times in the past I have posted memorable quotes from our esteemed members to launch a new thread. In honor of that tradition, I bring you my candidate for the best post in the last thread.

From our very own Firecrow911, came this classic.

"Yup. Here in the BSH thread I check the batteries in the smoke alarms and ensure the exits aren't blocked and that combustibles aren't piled too close to the hotter posts... I've not seen the thread burst into flames yet but apparently that happened in part 13, but I wasn't around and the thread burnt to the ground. The price of safety is eternal vigilance don't ya know. Investigators sealed the part 13 thread as it left the structure too dangerous to re-enter, and witnesses refused to come forward... I'm pretty sure it was an inside job."

Public Service Announcement from the BSH Fire Department:

And now the obligatory fine print, brought to you by our in-house legal counsel, Brother Saturnine.

Hey Welcome @TypeSly! You found the Brotherhood as the thread jumped from #34. It will take a little bit for folks to find us. But the official welcome wagon will be along shortly. We like all watches, especially divers, so post something up! And I posted Carolina, the latest group build the brotherhood put together with NTH. It happened before my time here, but I was lucky enough to get one from another brother. There are many custom BSH mods here that you'll see if you stick around. It's a welcoming group, fun, a bit irreverent at times, and ready to help where we can. And you've already seen our one rule.

Made the jump, and at light speed too! The ship was travelling too fast for me to throw a leather strap on. Well that and I was too busy tending to sous vide chicken wings. Note to self: never try and cook during a jump to hyperspace. While the wings came out perfect, myself and some other passengers realized the adverse affects of tequila and warp speed combined. We all made it, but it was close.

Welcome to BSHT! Join us for a while post some pictures and enjoy the camaraderie.

Here is an example of a submariner homage:

It doesn't have to be as beautiful as the Carolina...and on Mondays we post divers on bracelets

Happy #HeavyMetalMonday.
I hope you and everyone else here has a great week

- We have a civic holiday in Canada...so I already know I will have a great week :)

Ahh, the Tisell Vintage Sub was my gateway homage. It one of my favorites. I got one for my son to celebrate his first +$100k sale. I suggested he show it to his boss noting that when he hits $1M a 14060M would be a nice bonus ( so he could loan it to his Dad for safekeeping :)
